Few-Body Problems in Physics ’99


Book Description

The first Asia-Pacific Conference on Few-Body Problems in Physics took place from August 23 to August 28, 1999, at the Noda campus of the Sci ence University of Tokyo in Noda-city and Sawayaka Chiba Kenmin Plaza in Kashiwa-city, a suburb of Tokyo close to the Narita-Tokyo International Air port, with the Frontier Research Center for Computation Sciences (FRCCS) of the Science University of Tokyo as the host institute. The High Energy Accel erator Research Organization (KEK), the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research (RIKEN), the Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP)-Osaka University, the Physical Society of Japan, and the Association of Asia Pacific Physical Societies (AAPPS) supported this conference. The conference was initiated in the Asia Pacific area as a counterpart to the successful European Conference on Few-Body Problems in Physics (APFB99), in addition to the International Few-Body Conference Series and the Few Body Gordon Conference series in North America. The Physics of Few-Body Problems covers, as is well known, systems with finite numbers of particles in contrast to many-body systems with very large numbers of particles. Therefore, it covers such wide fields as mesoscopic, atom-molecular, exotic atom, nucleon, hyperon, and quark-gluon physics, plus their applications.

Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms


Book Description

This book will focus on the involvement of data mining and intelligent computing methods for recent advances in Biomedical applications and algorithms of nature-inspired computing for Biomedical systems. The proposed meta heuristic or nature-inspired techniques should be an enhanced, hybrid, adaptive or improved version of basic algorithms in terms of performance and convergence metrics. In this exciting and emerging interdisciplinary area a wide range of theory and methodologies are being investigated and developed to tackle complex and challenging problems. Today, analysis and processing of data is one of big focuses among researchers community and information society. Due to evolution and knowledge discovery of natural computing, related meta heuristic or bio-inspired algorithms have gained increasing popularity in the recent decade because of their significant potential to tackle computationally intractable optimization dilemma in medical, engineering, military, space and industry fields. The main reason behind the success rate of nature inspired algorithms is their capability to solve problems. The nature inspired optimization techniques provide adaptive computational tools for the complex optimization problems and diversified engineering applications. Tentative Table of Contents/Topic Coverage: - Neural Computation - Evolutionary Computing Methods - Neuroscience driven AI Inspired Algorithms - Biological System based algorithms - Hybrid and Intelligent Computing Algorithms - Application of Natural Computing - Review and State of art analysis of Optimization algorithms - Molecular and Quantum computing applications - Swarm Intelligence - Population based algorithm and other optimizations
